It is a matter of pride for India to have senior players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in Team India. These players work to maintain the balance of the team. Their flop has a huge impact on the performance of Team India. Something similar was seen recently during the series played against Australia. Both players performed disappointingly throughout the series. Due to which the Indian team had to face defeat by 1-3 in that series. After Team India’s defeat, a veteran player has given a big statement on the backing Virat Kohli is getting and his not playing in domestic cricket.

Virat should play domestic cricket

During this series played against Australia, the going ball was the biggest weakness for Virat Kohli. During this series, Kohli scored only 190 runs in 9 innings and was out several times on outgoing balls. Talking about all this, veteran player Irfan Pathan said that superstar culture is not needed in Team India. There should be team culture in India. When was the last time Virat Kohli played in domestic cricket? The great Sachin Tendulkar has also played domestic cricket after him, even when he did not need to. Still he did not stop playing domestic cricket. Sachin used to play because he wanted to spend four-five days on the field.

Tips should be taken from great players

Talking further about Virat Kohli, Irfan Pathan also said that he is making the same mistake again and again and is getting out. Not even time is passing between his two mistakes. If you consider his average in the last five years, it is not even 30. Do only senior players have rights in the Indian team? Instead, give a chance to a young player. Give him backing. That will also give you an average of 25-30. Virat Kohli has done a lot for Team India. But he is getting out again and again with the same mistake. Which shows that you are not even trying to correct your technical mistakes. Sunil Gavaskar is in the field. How long does it take for him to come and talk? What Irfan Pathan meant to say was that Virat Kohli needs to talk to great players to correct his mistakes.
